Here i use teamview +  arduino with relays bord to restart or turn on/off my rigs.

Could you share a bit about how you setup your arduino to restart your rigs. When my rigs get problem, I still have to call back home for restarting.

Thanks!

In general, the 1080 isn't too popular. For the price and power use, there are better options. However, in some cases, the lower popularity does mean you'll be able to get them more easily, or at a less inflated price. (At my local Best Buy, the 1080s were the only ones consistently in stock on the shelves.)


1060s, 1070s, and 1080tis are pretty good. The important thing to consider here is rig density.

With some fixed number of slots, you can make better use of them with 1080ti cards rather than 1060s. However, the 1080ti usually does not offer the same individual price/performance ratio that you can get with 1060s. For example, I can get 3GB 1060s for around $200-$210 after hunting around. A 1080ti would cost me at least $700, and it does not mine at triple the rates of 3GB 1060s on any algorithm I'm interested in. (For example, I can get about 300 H/s mining Zcash with each 1060. I haven't seen many reported hashrates for a 1080ti that exceed 750-800, at best.)

With 1060s, you're getting a smaller overall rig hashrate for the motherboard/CPU/ram/etc. that you got to support the GPUs, so that's what can start to mess with the overall price/performance ratio when compared to 1080ti cards.


Another thing to consider is resale value. A 1080ti will most likely retain its usefulness for longer than 1060s, assuming you maintain them just as well.


You are right on card performances, but for the rig building cost, you should make it like: 1 rig of 6 cards 1080Ti need only 2 PSU 850W + 1 CPU +1 MB + 1 RAM..... while 3 rig of 6 cards 1060 need 3 PSU 850W + 3 CPU, 3 MB + 3 RAM... The peripherals' price is not cheap Cheesy

For me, 1080 Ti is a good deal but I'm just started with a small budget, so I'm going with 1070.

I'm waiting for window's version. I think it could be compete with EWBF's tool.
1064  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Lbry real profit? Is whattomine misleading? on: September 03, 2017, 01:03:33 PM
I've just joined LBC mining, and I dont understand how the block finder work, is it based on miners' hashrate or their share or their difficulty or else?
In Suprnova pool, most of blocks, the finder is this guy "AlexandrDrug".
1065  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner on: August 30, 2017, 12:37:30 PM
yeh - the optimizations are the best, but I experienced some interference - as no one has replied I can't confirm if it's something local, the pool, the devs 2% servers, or something else - there was a period where the pool was receiving no hashes, but the miner kept receiving work and hashing away, when checking the network connections only 1 ip address was connected... not the pool ip address.

when I reported it, I thought I should load up and check again, and when it did load there were 2 Ip addresses, but I didn't want to run it for long as it did go wrong for me and I had not changed my local IP yet - This morning I remembered about the -nofee option, so I will do some more tests on the next session...

EWBF miner is good, but I wonder devfee is really 2%? I do want to donate him 2% for good mining tool, but I see too many devfee acepted share appear, almost every round.
1066  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining ETH or ZEC with these specs on: August 29, 2017, 06:31:31 AM
I'm being offered a mining rig with these specs, my intention is to either mine ETH or ZEC, locally energy cost is below USD 0.06, and the seller is telling I'd be able to get 185 Mh/s on ETH and 1850 Sol/s on ZEc at 1000 watts, cost is USD 4,400.

*Intel Core i3 7100
*8 GB of RAM
*6 x GPUs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
*128GB solid state drive
*Custom frame
*Energy source 1200W 80 Plus Gold

My question, will I get those hashrates, is it a worthy investment


Thanks All

Your setting costs too much! I recommend just use Intel Celeron G3930, 850W PSU is enough for 6x1060. Currently, I have 2 rigs of 1060 mine XMR, profit is so far so good.
1067  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1070 GTX owners, what are you mining now? on: August 23, 2017, 02:27:23 PM
I'm mining ETH with 2 rigs of 1070, it's more efficient on power than mining ZEC. Electric price is high here.

dual mine lbry at say 50 Dcri

it wont use much more power and it adds around $.50 cent profit to each card

Thank you very much! I'm in dual mining today, it likes we get better ROI with ETH+LBC.
1068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Will a EVGA 850 WATT Platinum be enough for 4 GTX 1060 cards? on: August 22, 2017, 06:33:33 AM
I'm using 850W psu for 6 GTX 1060 without any problem. At my setting Power limit 80%, each card just draws about 95W.

Btw, I gonna build 1 more rig 6 GTX 1070 (each card might consumes about 145W), I'm not sure how much power mobo+riser uses, so is that ok if I use 1 PSU Great Wall 1250W?

Thanks!

1070  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner on: August 18, 2017, 04:22:49 AM
--intensity option doesn't work at all. I tried values from 1-64 and even when I set it to 1 my mobile 1070 still working under full load....

Yeah, the same's as here. Some of my friends said it's a bit lower hashrate if intensity value is small but when I made several tests, hashrate's not much different. Only different in OC.
1071  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: mining Zcash (Nvidia 1070) on: August 18, 2017, 04:13:18 AM
I'm running 7x1070 with EWBF 0.3.4b.
GPU1-6 get around 430-440 sol/s, Power~140W/card, but GPU0 always gets lower at 390-410 sol/s.

I'm going to build 1 more rig 6x1070 with 1 PSU Great Wall 1250W, but I'm not sure this PSU is ok or not.
1072  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner on: August 15, 2017, 06:02:06 PM
I'm mining in flypool, as I check EWBF, the hashrate's never below 2000 sol/s (normally around 2030-2060) but flypool regularly give me current hashrate about 1920-1970 sol/s. It doesnt make sense for me.   
1073  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Owners of GTX 1070, what is your hashrate? on: August 14, 2017, 01:36:09 PM
My setting: power limit 80%, +100 core, + 200 mem, I get ~435 Sol/s.

And Are there anyone try to modify intensity value. I set all to 64, but when I test by changing some, it seems the hash rate does not change.
